Although the celebrity has never admitted to having any cosmetic intervention to look younger, such rumors refuse to die down.

Another rumor about the actress is her alleged breast augmentation. According to various reports, it is possible that Gugino has had breast implants as her cup size before was smaller compared to her present bust, which appears fuller, rounder and more prominent. The actress also isn’t shy about her allegedly enhanced asset, flaunting her cleavage in some events and even on the screen. Despite her age, Gugino definitely still has got her rocking body.
